Under the Regulated Price Plan (RPP), the Ontario Energy Board has set time-of-use (TOU) electricity prices for eligible consumers that have smart meters since May 2005.

The Board initiated a consultation process to assist it in determining whether there is a need to modify the current structure or price setting methodology for TOU electricity prices. On October 18, 2010, the Board posted a letter to inform interested parties of this initiative.
